Detox - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Inwood, IA.

When a person is just getting off drugs or alcohol, they will typically have symptoms of withdrawal as their body detoxifies. Detox may be performed in a medically supervised detox facility or treatment center so that the person has fully removed all of the drugs from the body and they are mentally and physically balanced, and of course off drugs and no longer drinking.

There are a number of different types of detox in or near Inwood that clients can choose from. Different substances bring about different withdrawal symptoms, and certain patients may be at risk of critical side effects of withdrawal and may require closer medical supervision and more intensive engagement. Either way, anyone detoxing or wanting to quit heavy drug or alcohol use should always do so at a qualified facility and not at home on their own. This is because of the many risks associated with withdrawal, but also because it lowers the risks associated with relapse. A relapse during detox can at times result in an accidental overdose, so obtaining professional detox services and securing access to a robust system of support could literally save the individual's life.

Some programs provide a natural and holistic detoxification, when it isn't expected that there will be any risks or complications based off of the person's current drug use and current state of health. Even some of the more serious physical addictions, such as heroin addiction, are not life-threatening but produce harsh withdrawal symptoms in the first couple days of detoxification. These symptoms steadily decrease within a few days without much intervention and can be done without medications of any kind through a natural detox.

Medically assisted detoxification is performed in an inpatient facility or hospital setting with the use of prescription medications. This could be necessary for an individual who is suffering from alcoholism and will need medication to alleviate life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, as is also the case with some specific prescription medications that individuals get addicted to. Medical detoxification may also be favored among opiate addicted clients, who would want be administered medications to temporarily alleviate opioid withdrawal symptoms as they come off of heroin or prescription opioid drugs.
